Jip Jip Rocks Shiraz-Cabernet
Morambro Creek
Australia - South Australia - Padthaway

The Jip Jip vineyard is planted in some of the world’s oldest mineral rich soils and in the most temperate of maritime climates. It consistently produces excellent fruit quality from low yielding vines. Great attention to detail with the integration of fruit flavors and fine oak barrels helps produce classic handcrafted wine styles.

Deep purple. Boysenberry and mulberry aromas with a hint of cedar and pepper. Similar berry fruits show through on the opulent, textured palate, with a lingering finish.

Vinification
Fermentation took place over 10 – 12 days in a combination of open and static fermenters. The temperature was closely monitored to ensure the wine retains its natural fruit expression. New and older French and American oak was used for the maturation of selected wine parcels over a period of 13 months. These parcels were put together from our family estate to best demonstrate the depth and character of our fruit, balanced by integrated oak.

halliday logo"65/35% shiraz/cabernet sauvignon. This wine is precisely as I remember: it's a juicy, ripe (a touch jammy, perhaps), round, uncomplicated crowd pleaser. There's no element more in play than another, the oak, shiraz and cabernet all come as a package."

wine orbit 93pts"It's gorgeously ripe and perfumed on the nose showing blackberry, sweet cherry, vanilla and hazelnut characters with a touch of pepper spice. The palate displays lovely weight and plump mouthfeel, leading to a lengthy supple finish. Brightly expressed and immediately appealing. At its best: now to 2027. AU$23.00.highly enjoyable.

tastings 2018 gold"Garnet black color. Exotic, attractive aromas and flavors of chocolate mint, black raspberry tart a la mode, and basil and curry leaves with a silky, bright, fruity medium body and a compelling, medium-length finish with elements of spiced nuts, chocolate herb muffin, hint of marinated peppers, and vanilla pod with fine, chewy tannins. A exotically spicy and herbal shiraz with a great style and sense of place."

wine enthusiast"This is a dense, ripe wine that offers notes of dark berry fruit, chocolate, dried mint, a charred veg nuance and cola-like oak, along with some earthy reduction. Oak on the palate is chewy and the alcohol is elevated, but there's also a lovely savory character to the textured tannins. This is one for those who prefer their reds on the extroverted side. - CHRISTINA PICKARD"

tastings gold 2017"Dark black violet color. Aromas and flavors of wet earth, blackberry jam, saddle, and smoked poblano pepper with a slightly chewy, vibrant, dry medium-to-full body and a peppery, refreshing, medium-long lavender, twigs and stems, and dried pomegranate finish with chewy, dusty tannins and moderate oak. Well-integrated aromas and flavors along with a rustic yet refined edge make wine drinkers seeking adventure beg for another sip."

wine enthusiast 87 pts"This straightforward red blend from the Padthaway wine region in South Australia leads with ripe plums and cherries that feel a touch sour at times. Pepper, dried mint and vanillin oak characters are there, too. In the mouth it's medium to full bodied with slippery, plump fruit, a grip of grainy, savory tannins and a short finish. - CHRISTINA PICKARD"
